noah,

you can get another T handle and try to see if the modulator still works. the T can just fall out, not break off (at least on mine). did you try and see if it held vacuum?

PM me and Ill send you the T handle of of my old modulator. its off the green one, but maybe theyre interchangeable. i dunno if you could buy one alone.

A) What is this on top of the FI pump? I see part# 1 427 231 001 but haven't found out what it is?
i think this is the non turbo version of the famous ALDA system. not involved in the transmission.

B) This, I believe, is the vacuum kill switch for keying the car off, right? A search for part# 1 427 133 091 calls this the shutoff valve.
yes.

C) What is this part? I see part# 001 545 0732 but, again, haven't found out what it is?
i think this is the cruise control unit...i think.

As to your VCV, i assume you saw the pics of one earlier in the thread. I dont know where it goes on an '80, someone else will chime in. i dont see a spot on the IP for it like there is on mine.
